      I think I stopped getting excited about the latest updates around the time NT released that hugely flawed service pack that cause so many issues. SP4 was it?

      After that carry on I've always been happy to wait for a few updates before installing anything new nowadays.

          Nope not interested. I've got W10 on my development box but the last update wouldn't so updates are now disabled and I'll simply run it until I don't have any Windoze dependencies caused by client requirements. My new mini dev box is Fedora as are all my servers and the main dev box will be Fedora at the next tech upgrade

                I thought they announced that they weren't releasing any new versions of windows?

                Yep, they did: https://www.theverge.com/2015/5/7/85...ion-of-windows

                  They did, El Reg brought this very point up recently when MS released the end of support date for Win10

                    We're better off waiting for Windows 12, seriously.

                    Microsoft releases seem to work on an involuntary tick-tock principle, where the "ticks" are a pile of junk and they then manage to pull it together in time for the "tock"
